Two Worlds - Namjin

14 - Chosen

Pov. Jin

It should be illegal to work when you're sad or depressed. I've been dealing with customers all day when I can barely deal with myself. I can't even say this job helps me get distracted because this is where I met Namjoon. He haven't texted or called so his answer is obvious, he doesn't wanna see me again. I'm cleaning the counter with my head in the clouds when someone sits in front of me. I don't have to look up, his voice already lets me know who it is. My heart skips a beat when his words come out in that deep tone.

- Can I have a coffee from your cutest employee?

Unbelievable. Four days with no contact and then he comes here with that stupid dimple smile and that habit of slightly closing his eyes before raising his eyebrows. Sexy bastard. I serve him a coffee with no sugar or cream because he doesn't deserve it and hand it to him without another word. Apparently, he's still not done talking nonsense.

- Is there any discounts for me?

- No but I can punch your face for free! Or spit on your coffee without charge!

- Hahahaha So I get nothing to celebrate that I got a new decent job? And now my nights will be free to spend time with my boyfriend?

- W-What?

- Well...if you still wanna be my pretty boyfriend, love...

His tone stops sounding like a joke and finally shows some honesty. He seems nervous, playing with the little spoon in his coffee and staring at me with hopeful eyes. Even if this is what I wanted, I wasn't prepared. I was so sure he would never choose me over his old "job". And yet here he is, waiting for an answer and swallowing hard at my silence.

I walk out from behind the counter and without another word stand in front of him. His hands cup my face cleaning a tear I didn't know was falling. Not able to hold it I hug him tight.

- Y-You are a fucking idiot, Namjoon

- I missed you too

- You didn't even text!

- I like surprising you! Though you probably knew I was up to something hahaha

No. Not at all. I was confident he already was trying to get over me. Or high up his ass, who knows. We have a lot to talk about but before anything I take the liberty to kiss him. He doesn't taste like cigarettes and the way he tightly holds my waist lets me know he missed this as much as me.

He stays until the end of my shift so we can go out on a short and unplanned date. He holds my hand as we walk through the streets looking at the different stores even if we won't enter any of them. On the way, we make a few ground rules so this relationship can work out.

- No smoking or getting high, no selling drugs, ideally no more selling illegal shit in general

- Fine but...how about drinking? I promise I'll control myself! And I could go to a few parties a week!

- Okay, but if you ever drunk call me I'm recording it and using it as a ringtone

- Fair enough. The races? I can go, right?

- One condition: Start using a fucking helmet. And tell Jimin and Tae to buy some as well, I worry as hell when I see them unprotected!

- Deal! Believe me, they'll live with those things on hahaha

We keep walking and eventually the subject changes to something more light. I missed him these days so I catch him up to what I've been doing. On his side, he tells me about the new job in a company near by. He kind of scared the hell out of someone called Hobi to get an interview but he's most likely gonna get the job.

When we're walking past one of the many stores in this street, something calls my attention. I see it through the corner of my eye but it's enough for me to stop. In a jewelry store, there's a beautiful necklace being displayed. He realizes I'm not moving so he asks me about it. That silver color and the little diamonds attached to it. How could I forget how it looked?

- I had one just like that when I was younger. My mother had given it to me.

- Did you lose it? Those things happen, love

- I didn't. My father stole it from my nightstand while I was sleeping and sold it for drugs.

- Oh...

Ah, I shouldn't bring such bad memories to a date. It was just impossible for me not to stare back at it. I try to walk away when I hear Namjoon softly talk to me as he holds my hand.

- As soon as I can save some money, I'll buy you one just like that

- R-Really?

- I mean, it's too soon to buy you an engagement ring so this sounds like a better idea hahaha

I wanna cry again but stop myself. Once more I kiss his lips and hold him close. The words fly out of my mouth like I can't control them. Not that I wanted to anyway.

- I love you, Joonie

- Wow, I didn't think you'd say that for a necklace hahaha I should buy you a lot of presents!

- That's not why I said it, dumbass. It's for everything you're doing for me...for choosing me.

- I couldn't help it. After all, I love you too.

The sensation in my chest is too unique to describe. But it makes me think everything will be okay now. Because he wouldn't take another dumb decision again. No...he would never...

Hi babes! One more happy chapter before the absolut drama! I'll see you soon for that!

These two are a total mood, I love them. And this is not the first time we mention that necklace ✨
